Unoccupied Annexes

If you own a property that is a self-contained annexe with its own Council Tax band, and if owing to planning constraints you are unable to let it separately, it is exempt from Council Tax whilst it is unoccupied.

The exemption applies even if the main property is also unoccupied.

If you want to apply for an exemption, email counciltax@fareham.gov.uk. We will generally seek to confirm that the property is unoccupied.

You must inform the Council if you are no longer entitled to a discount or exemption. We will take legal action against anyone who fraudulently claims a discount or exemption.
